What I'm building now, what I built before, and a few things I made just for fun.
Extract huge archives in place. It unpacks from the end and cuts the archive shorter as it goes, so a 180 GB download that unpacks to 200 GB needs a little over 200 GB free instead of 380. Crash-safe and resumable, tested by killing it at every commit point. ZIP, 7z, tar, RAR and split archives, as a CLI and a native desktop app.
Build a system, load it until it breaks, and watch why. A system design simulator with a real discrete-event engine: 33 components, measured percentiles, retry storms that collapse on their own. 1,000+ GitHub stars in its first week, part of Vercel's Open Source Program and sponsored by Workers IO.
Share your free time in someone else's time zone. Drag on a 24-hour clock, and a second clock shows the same hours in their zone. Send it as a short link that opens in the reader's own time zone, with no sign-up and no database: the whole schedule is packed into a link of about 23 characters.
GSoC 2026 contributor for Kdenlive, the open source video editor. Three effect widgets in the C++/Qt codebase, all merged and shipping in Kdenlive 26.08: per-channel Curves, a multi-stop gradient editor, and keyframe types for time remapping.
A gateway that gives every AI answer a second look before the user acts on it. Built for the Accenture Innovation Challenge 2026.
Read-only MCP server for Kubernetes service-mesh introspection in Go. Three tools over stdio and streamable HTTP, built as groundwork for Kmesh's LFX MCP server project.
GitHub contribution graph as a desktop widget for Noctalia Shell.
A recipe manager that helps you save, organize, and discover recipes from around the web, all in one place.
Weird, fast-built side projects, shipped for laughs, learning, and the love of building.
It's 2am and I built an API. A "REST API" that vibe-checks anything you send it — query, decision, your situationship — and returns a score, a confidence level, and a recommendation from the vibe council.
Wayland was the one place obs-zoom-to-mouse refused to work, so I forked it. A Lua OBS script that zooms a PipeWire screen capture to follow your cursor on Hyprland, because screen recordings deserve to actually show what you're pointing at.
A C++ program that turns images into colored ASCII art, printed straight to your terminal. Built mostly to relearn pixels, luminance, and why std::cout is slower than you'd hope.
